No problem, I will remove Zam define.

Please add documentation under Documentation/riscv regarding the
policy of not merging support for RISC-V extensions which aren't in
"frozen" or "ratified" state.

Sure, I will update comments as-per kernel-doc.rst.

Okay, we sill not parse 'x' and 'z' bits (which can be added later for
X and Z prefix extensions).
